Borne from one woman’s itch for collecting personal tales and speaking to strangers, RAW is a first-of-its-kind event, and London's first listening night.
This June, we celebrate 3 years of creating one of the most vibrant spaces of human connection. What is RAW? It’s a tasting menu of London’s culture: dynamic, eclectic and diverse, pairing uncensored stories with live music, and art.RAW is a night of immersive storytelling curated around a theme. RAW celebrates London’s authenticity and freedom of expression and bottles it into a night out. In 3 years of putting on RAWs, no two have ever been the same. It’s a night of IYKYK vibes, human connection, and creativity, often described as 'one of the best nights in London.' Join us for our 3 year celebration as we blend culture, connection and cool in some of the city's hottest venues – this time round at the stunning, 17th century, former courthouse, Old Sessions House in Farringdon.

AN EXPERIENCE CREATED BY HUMAN CONNECTION SPECIALISTS
Every RAW centres around uncensored storytelling by everyday people, paired with live music and art – curated around a chosen theme. Taking over a different slick venue every time, RAWs adapt to the space and can be intimate affairs of 100 people, to a microfestival of 400 people – with food pop-ups, makers’ markets, screenings etc.

THE RAW ORIGIN STORY
RAW started life among inner circles word of mouth. An “if you know you know” sorta vibe, before going public. But the backstory of this unique event goes back even further, stemming from WDN founder, Christine's insatiable curiosity and search for relatable, human experiences.
Today, RAWs have come off the streets and away from kitchen tables – and take place monthly in some of the coolest venues across the city, building a patchwork tribe of good humans, doing good things. Find out how you can join the WDN community here.
